What the filings flag
72d DSOReceivables vs revenue.Days sales outstanding moved from 57 to 72 days FY2024→FY2025 (receivables +25% vs revenue -1%). Receivables are outrunning sales — a flag for aggressive revenue recognition or slipping collections.
-0%Return on invested capital.Return on invested capital is -0% and rising from -5% — well below its ~9% cost of capital, so reinvested dollars may be destroying value, not building it.
+4.9%/yrShare-count dilution.Diluted share count changed +15% over the last 3 years to FY2025 (+4.9%/yr). The count is GROWING — existing holders are being diluted. That's ~4.9% shaved off per-share growth every year — total profit has to grow that much just to keep earnings-per-share flat, and a stake held since FY2022 has been diluted ~15%.
15% of revStock-based comp load.Stock-based compensation ran 15% of revenue and 120% of free cash flow in FY2025 — about $1.89 per diluted share. Heavy — a large slice of 'free cash flow' is really being paid out in stock, so the true owner cash per share is well below the headline.
